I will miss Michael Crichton!
My guess is this was an 80% complete outline.
It doesn't have the researched detail MC's stories usually have, but a fun listen in any case. Some good characters and some pretty neat facts about the days of pirates.--worth a credit

I found Pirate Latitudes entertaining but true to Michael Crichton's formula of far too many characters. I always seem to enjoy his stories and the research is top notch as usual. Over all a great listen and worth an Audible credit.

I have read many of Michael Crichton's books. This was not one of his best, but it sure was up there with the others, really kept my interest. The second half of the book was very good. I am very happen with this book.

I enjoyed this story of the affable Captain Hunter and his rag-tag group of privateers. Although the action in this tale may have been piled on a little too thick, I still found this to be a very entertaining story. I won't get into the debate over whether or not Crichton actually wrote this and I won't call it Crichton at his best. But it sure made the commute go quickly!

I really loved this book. I listened to this while I was driving and it was very engaging. The whole story was so vivid with lots of good gore. I have listened to a lot of Micheal's books and I have loved them all - well OK Next was not great but I really did enjoy it. This book really was well done and the story is so engaging. I really think anyone would love this story if you like Pirates!!

An excellent book with an interesting epilogue, seems like some of it was based in fact. One chapter was dissappointingly...far-fetched with respect to an encounter with a sea-monster, but then again the sailors of the time commonly reported such things. Never-the-less, it was a brilliant story that kept me totally into it throughout.

This is a great pirate yarn, with all the fixins -battles! hurricanes! sea monsters! bloody murders! wenches! double crossing! This story is Homeric. MC had fun writing it and you can have fun reading it if you stay in a margarita frame of mind. The narrator sounds a little like Mr. Worf, so I just pictured Mr. Worf reading this on the Enterprise several hundred years from now. Have fun with this book!
